I Had 50 Days to Build a Backyard

This backyard was a complete disaster… so we rebuilt the entire thing from the ground up. In this full transformation, we take you step-by-step through the entire process — from the initial walkthrough with the homeowner to the final reveal of a luxury outdoor living space. We start with demolition and excavation, then uncover and repair a damaged rim joist under the back door before rebuilding the structure properly. From there, we completely redesign the space: New perimeter fence using steel posts with vinyl tongue & groove boards Custom deck build with integrated privacy wall Full outdoor kitchen setup Automatic louvered pergola for all-weather use Patio area with a steel pergola and fire pit Fresh sod, stepping stones, and landscaping throughout Finished with a backyard ADU in the rear corner This is what it really takes to turn a broken backyard into a high-end outdoor living space. If you’re into real builds, real problems, and real solutions — you’re in the right place.
